PROGENY

SEP24-JUN25

Progeny is a graduate collection rooted in legacy and shaped by design. It honours the matriarchal lineage that formed me, weaving memory, movement, and modernity into garments that act as extensions of identity.

Inspired by the Irish and Indian summers of my childhood, each piece reflects a balance between tradition and innovation, crafted with the hands my mother gave me. Through tactile processes and deep material sensitivity, Progeny challenges fast fashion—embracing the slow to redefine deliberate design.
Working exclusively with deadstock materials and aligning with the IPF Pillars of Environment and Circularity, I transform discarded textiles through techniques like heat pressing, casting, and lace knitting. My approach centers craftsmanship, longevity, and intimate connection.

Here, fabric becomes more than material—it becomes a vessel for storytelling, heritage, and identity.
